Do I need to return this tremolo bridge?

[unleashthejay]

Hello, I bought this bridge but it seems not to align with all the drills holes. Does anyone know if this needs to be returned and replaced or do gutter techs know how to work with it? Thank you.

You could just use the middle or 2 and 4 screw holes and see if it holds up. But yeah, it's really the wrong bridge for that guitar.

I would return it. Filling the holes and redrilling is inelegant.

Yup. Send it back. You need a different spacing for best performance.
What model is this? Which one do you need?
Wilkinson is good stuff.

It looks like you ordered the 54MM I think you need the 52.5mm, just by judging by the pictures

This is the model in the picture: https://www.stewmac.com/parts-and-h...oh-vsvg-vintage-tremolo/?variationCode=3534-B

This is the one I needed which I ordered: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0912QXXQH/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=ATE2HFHESBWAX&th=1

Basically I needed 52.5mm one and not the 54MM I first got.

I wish I saw your post first before researching online for so long haha. Yup I needed 52.5mm and these are 54mm.
